The oldest church building on the highest point in Horb's old town dates back to the middle of the 13th century. The Gothic
The collegiate church was enlarged in the 14th and 15th centuries and burned down in 1725
in the great city fire. It was rebuilt in 1728/55
in baroque style. In 1806 the King of Württemberg raised the Horber
Chorherrenstift up. With the Horber Madonna is in the women's choir
probably the most important work of art in the city.

At the end of the 14th century, Count Rudolf III von Hohenberg created a monastery for canons. The church was built and enlarged in the Gothic style on the hill above the old town. After a devastating fire in the city in 1725, it was given a baroque appearance when it was rebuilt. Only in the eastern area do windows, vaults and a beautiful portal still indicate the original Gothic style.
